<div dir="ltr">It is already "abated" which means we do not need to worry. It is dealt with. Thank you whoever painted over it. What I was saying is someone should mention to eclair how unexcellent it was to put Noisebridge in this situation. It should not have been done in the first place. Eclair most likely knows better. <br>

I just spoke with the San Francisco DPW. They said an inspector came by and it was indeed abated, which means it is dealt with. I am asking for some official type document saying that. After we get that maybe I can get Andy to pass it along with the original notice off to the landlord for their records. </div>

<div dir="ltr">I brought this exact issue up at the meeting. I came up with an extremely brief task list to figure out what needs to be done. Before we do any of this I believe we need to give the notice to the landlord since I think it was addressed to them. <div>
